To create your own stand-alone programs which call DX modules, as shown
by the "DX Modules" layer in <A HREF="progu009.htm#FIGARCH">Figure 1</A>,
link your programs with the libDXcallm.a library.
Because your program is the main routine and does not include any of the
functions which are supplied by the Data Explorer Executive, you must do all
object management, flow control (which modules to call when), any
looping or conditional execution, and object deletion and reference
count management.
See <A HREF="progu112.htm#HDRDXCMPLU">DXCallModule, DXModSet...,
DXSetModule...</A> for more information.
<P>
If you are building a module to use with Data Explorer, you would link with this
library if you wanted to use DXCallModule to use some of the Data Explorer
modules from within your own program. In addition, some higher level
processing functions such as interpolation support, is available only in
libDXcallm.a.
<P>
The routines contained in libDXcallm.a are listed in <A
HREF="progu097.htm#HDRALLR">Appendix C. "Data Explorer Library Routines"</A>.
